Electrical Requirements

WARNING

2. Attach the notched grille extrusion to those already

assembled by sliding it into the bottom/lowest grille.

Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,

fire, or electrical shock.

Before you move your refrigerator and freezer into their final location, it is important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection.

Recommended grounding method

A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your refrigerator and a separate circuit serving only your freezer be provided. Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension cord.

NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or removing a light bulb, turn the Temperature Control to the OFF position as shown and then disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source.

3. Install the top trim extrusion onto the grille assembly by

sliding it onto the grille extrusion at the top.

Attach the Side Trim Extrusions

1. Align the side trim extrusions with the sides of the grille

assembly. NOTE: Make sure all the grille extrusions are contained within

the channel of the side extrusions and the top surface of the top trim extrusion is flush with the top surface of the sides.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Assemble the Top Grille

1. Assemble the six grille extrusions by sliding one into the other

through the tongue and groove feature as shown.

2. Align the hole on the side extrusion with the groove on the

top extrusion on each side of the grille assembly. There will be a ³⁄₈" (9.5 mm) gap between extrusions.

3. Using the two countersunk Phillips screws, fasten the side

trim to the grille assembly. Insert the screw through the predrilled hole and into the groove on each side of the grille assembly as shown.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Install the Top Grille and Trim Assembly

IMPORTANT: The top grille and trim assembly, and your floor can be damaged if the assembly is dropped.

Prepare the Opening

1. Place cardboard or hardboard over the floor at each side of

the rough opening where the side trim will meet the floor.

2. Place the top grille and trim assembly face down on the floor

centered in front of the rough opening.

3. Using two people, one on each side, lift the trim assembly

and position it into place above and on each side of the opening.

4. Use several pieces of tape to temporarily hold the assembly

in place as shown.

3. Using a carpenter’s level, level the top trim, and shim as

necessary.

NOTE: Shims are not provided with the trim kit.

4. Using two pan head Phillips screws, fasten the top trim

extrusion by inserting a screw through the predrilled holes at each end. Completely tighten the screws.

5. Completely tighten the center screw.

Fasten the Side Trim to the Opening

1. Using a carpenters level, make sure the sides are plumb, and

shim as necessary.

NOTE: Shims are not provided with the trim kit.

2. Using four pan head Phillips screws (two on each side),

fasten both the left-hand and right-hand side trim extrusions to the opening or cabinetry. Make sure the trim does not twist.

5. Mark the trim assembly hole locations around the opening.

Remove the tape and lower the trim assembly back to the floor.

6. Using a cordless drill and ¹⁄₈" diameter drill bit, drill holes

where marked. NOTE: Some cabinetry or wall materials may require

predrilled holes using a ⁷⁄₈" diameter drill bit.

7. Repeat steps 3 and 4.

Fasten the Top Trim to the Opening

1. Align the top extrusion against the opening, so that it is tight

and flush with the front surface of the wall opening or cabinetry.

2. From below and behind the top trim extrusion, insert a pan

head Phillips screw through the predrilled center hole of the top trim and into the wall opening or cabinetry.

NOTE: Do not completely tighten the screw.

Place and Align Refrigerator and Freezer

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

When Moving Your Freezer or Refrigerator:

Your freezer and refrigerator are heavy. When moving the appliance for cleaning or service, be sure to cover the floor with cardboard or hardboard to avoid floor damage. Always pull the appliance straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the appliance when trying to move it, as floor damage could occur.

1. Place the freezer and refrigerator in front of the opening

(freezer on the left, refrigerator on the right).

2. Adjust the leveler legs so that each appliance is level and

plumb and at the same height as the other appliance. NOTE: The freezer and refrigerator each have two front

leveler legs that are adjustable. The back of each cabinet rests on two fixed supports.

3. Place a leveling tool on top of the cabinet. Check the level

first side to side and then front to back. To raise a corner - Turn the leveler leg clockwise.

To lower a corner - Turn the leveler leg counterclockwise.

Move the First Appliance

1. Cover the floor with cardboard or hardboard to avoid floor

damage.

2. Slide the first appliance into the opening far enough to

connect the power cord to the electrical outlet.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,

fire, or electrical shock.

4. Repeat Step 3 for the other appliance until both the freezer

and refrigerator are level, plumb and at the same height.

5. Adjust the front leveler legs enough to lift the cabinet up off of

the floor. NOTE: If your model is equipped with rollers, the front legs

should be lowered enough to lift the rollers off of the floor to ensure that the freezer does not roll forward when the door is opened.

Move Refrigerator and Freezer to Final

Location

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

When Moving Your Freezer or Refrigerator:

IMPORTANT: If the electrical outlets are not centered in the back wall of the opening, move the appliance on the opposite side of the outlets into the opening first.

3. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

4. Check the level of the appliance since it may have changed

when you moved it into the opening.

5. Attach the plastic foam spacer, to the side of the appliance,

so that it is flush with the top and rear edge of the cabinet as shown.

NOTE: The spacer ensures that the two appliances are positioned the correct distance apart from each other.

Move the Second Appliance

1. Slide the first appliance into the opening far enough to

connect the power cord to the electrical outlet.

2. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

3. Check the level of the appliance since it may have changed

when you moved it into the opening. NOTE: Depending on the level of the floor, you may need to

remove each appliance and readjust several times to achieve a satisfactory alignment.

4. If needed, either door may be adjusted vertically by loosening

the three hinge bolts, moving the hinge and retightening the bolts.

NOTE: Provide additional support for the refrigerator door while the hinges are being moved. Do not depend on the door gasket magnets to hold the door in place while you are working.
